I woke up this morning already feeling sick. So sick in fact that I ran I to the bathroom and puked.

When I was done I stood up and brushed my teeth. I went back to my room and changed into some dark grey sweatpants, a Baggy My Chemical Romance T-shirt. I put my hair into a messy bun on top my head and crawled back into bed. This was going to be a long day.

My phone buzzed and I pulled it out. It was a text from Jackson.

"When you're ready to apologize, meet me at 440 Western Road." It said.

"Can't, sry I'm sick." I replied.

"Yea right. Srsly I have a surprise." He insisted.

I knew I wasn't going to win so I got out of bed and brushed my hair. Did my makeup quick, and got dressed.

"On my way." I texted him.

I got in the car and used my phone as a GPS. I could hear the music from down the block and could feel the nausea in my stomach as I parked the car and walked up the driveway.

I walked inside with my head pounding and the room swirling. I tried to walk straight but stumbled over a few times. Eventually I found Jackson.

"I knew you weren't sick. Now come here I need you to meet someone." He said.

I didn't say anything bc I knew if I opened my mouth I'd puke.

"Alex, this is my friend Anna. Anna, this is my girlfriend Alex." He said.

"Nice to meet you." Smiled Anna.

And in that moment, I couldn't hold it in anymore and I puked all over the pretty, stick thin, blond girl in front of me.

I didn't stop for a second before running to the bathroom and locking myself in the stall. Not until I was in there did I realize how stupid that was because she's most likely on her way here to clean herself up.

I pulled my feet up to my chest and sat there. I was so dead, Jackson was going to kill me.

I felt hot tears streaming down my cheeks as I realized how alone I was. I had nobody, nobody knew but me and Jackson. The thought made me cry harder and I heard a knock on the stall door.

"Alex? It's Anna. I really don't mind at all. Wanna tell me why you're crying?" She asked.

For some reason I wiped away the tears and opened the door.

"I'm crying because I have nobody. Nobody understands." I said shakily.

"I might understand if you tell me." She said.

I thought about it for a second but I knew what I had to say. "I'm sorry, I can't." I said.

"That's okay, do you want a ride home?" She asked.

"No thanks." I said.

"Okay," she sighed. "Here's my number. Feel free to call me if you ever wanna talk." She handed me a small piece of paper with her number on it and I snuck out the back door of the house and to my car.

I cranked up I'm Not Okay by My Chemical Romance and drove home.

Mom was home with Grandpa Vic, they both stopped talking immediately when I walked in letting me know I was the subject of conversation. I forced an uncomfortable smile and began walking upstairs.

"Are you hungry?" She asked.

"No, I'm sick." I said truthfully. She sighed, of course she didn't believe me. I don't blame her.

I crawled into bed and sat there.

Maybe I should call Anna and tell her.

No, she was just being nice.

But she could help.

No she can't. She's his friend.

But she's your friend too.

I'm to weird to have friends.

In the end I decided not to call her. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

How am I supposed to keep doing this?

I eventually fell asleep and Into another nightmare.

I was with Anna, and I told her what happened.

"I knew we couldn't trust her." She hissed. Then Jackson showed up, and mom, and grandpa Vic, and Trix, and lots of random people. They all laughed at first. Then began to hit me. I tried to fight them off but there where too many.

Eventually I woke up gasping for air and covered in sweat. I sighed and shakily climbed out of bed. I didn't feel sick but I had a headache.

I walked downstairs and grabbed some Advil and a glass of water. I took the pill and a gulp of water then hiked back upstairs.

I took a shower then came back to my room and got dressed. I put on some music as I brushed my hair. I did my makeup then brushed my teeth and looked In the mirror. This is as good as it will get.

I walked downstairs, my stomach growling at me. It's been five days and I was barely standing up. My stomach got crampy and I curled up onto the couch.

I heard a knock at the door and forced myself to get up. I answered the door to see Jackson.

"Hey, ready to go?" He asked.

"Go where?" I replied with another question.

"We're going out to eat with my friends." He said.

Just great.

"Alright let me get my jacket." I said.

I grabbed my black leather jacket off of the living room table and threw it on over my red Fall Out Boy shirt.

I walked outside and got in the car, clutching my stomach trying everything to stop the pain.

We met a group of people at the restaurant and of course the only seat left was on the edge next to Anna.

She smiled at me as I sat down. I sipped the water I'm front of me and ordered a salad. When the waiter brought the food I glanced at it nervously.

"I'm just going to go get some fresh air." I said before dashing out the door.

"I'm going to go make sure she's okay." I heard Jackson say.

I made it outside and he followed behind me.

"What the matter with you?! First you cause a scene at the wear house flirting with some guy, then you claim to be sick, then you puke on my friend, then you run out of a restaurant like that!" He yells.

He shoves me to the ground and kicks me several times.

"Hey guys just came to make sure everything's okay-" I heard Anna say.

Then she ran and placed herself in front of Jackson.

"Don't touch her." She said firmly.
